Uncensored From Texas Death Row

Uncensored from Texas Death Row is a series of articles originally started by Paul Colella that gives readers an impression of life on Death Row in Texas through the eyes of the inmates.

Richard Cartwright took over when Colella was released from Death Row on August 12, 2003, after having had his sentenced reduced to 20 years imprisonment. After Cartwright's execution on May 19, 2005, Clinton Lee Young took over.

One notable contributor is Hank Skinner, the human rights activist convicted of the murder of his girlfriend Twila Busby and her children in 1993. As of May 2010, Skinner is still on Death Row. His case is still pending review.

Many of Richard Cartwright's "Uncensored" articles can be found, curiously enough, at a Pro Death Penalty website where it is apparent many people thought fondly of Richard.
